Wheelchair assistance is available from airlines and curbside skycaps at no charge. Skycaps may also assist with luggage. When purchasing your ticket, it is best to notify your airline that you will require wheelchair assistance.  You can do this while buying your ticket either online or via a reservation center/travel agent.  By doing this, the airline will be better able to assist you from the ticket counter to the aircraft.  If you need assistance from the curb to the aircraft, please call 916-874-0126 a day or two before your flight and you can make arrangements for a wheelchair attendant to meet you in front of the terminal.  You can also visit your airline's ticket counter. In Terminal A, the ticket counters are on ground level. In Terminal B, take an elevator or escalator to the second level to find your airline's ticket counter.

Those wishing to transport a battery-powered wheelchair aboard an aircraft should make arrangements with their airline in advance.
The airport recommends contacting your airline before your trip to learn about wheelchair assistance. Click on the links in the right sidebar for airline information for customers with disabilities.

Aira is live, human-to-human visual interpreting service for people who are blind or low vision. It is available as an accommodation for anyone while onsite at our facility.

Using the powerful combination of a camera and the Aira app on someone’s device of ‘choice’, a professionally-trained agent will assist by visually interpreting what is in the camera’s view or on screen.  

SMF has deployed Amadeus Facial Biometrics technology at select boarding gates, starting on March 2, 2023. This state-of-the-art technology will revolutionize the process of verifying traveler identities by comparing live photos to the traveler’s existing passport or visa photo in secure U.S. Department of Homeland Security systems.  As a result, the safety and security of passengers and airport employees will be enhanced, while the screening process will become more efficient. The facial biometrics process is voluntary for U.S. citizens.

It is important to note that initially, the Amadeus Facial Biometrics technology will be deployed only for international flights. The integration of this technology is part of SMF's ongoing commitment to implementing innovative solutions that make traveling easier and more convenient for passengers. The implementation of biometric screening will save time and reduce stress for travelers, as well as provide a secure, touchless departures process for identity verification.

Travelers who wish to opt out of the new biometric process may notify an airline official or a U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer as they approach the departure gate. These travelers will be required to present a valid travel document for inspection by the gate agent and they will be processed consistent with existing requirements for departure from the United States.
